Can I use this to keep a permanent/perennial shrub or is it designed for annuals?

It isn't recommended to grow shrubs because there is not enough room in the box for the roots.

I honestly don't know. I purchased it to be used as an ornament shrub but non of the seeds grew despite following directions for proper planting.

Unsure. It would probably last for a few seasons but eventually it would deteriorate if left unprotected. i have mine in the house with several plants on it and am very happy with it under these circumstances.

Yeah, I'd say it'd be great with one plant per section. But only if you're very dilligent about watering. They dry out very quickly. Drip irrigation would be helpful.

I haven't tried that. I have used it only on my outdoor shrubs and it works very well for that.

It's not a mix at all. It's 100% annual rye seed. It's OK to use this for a season to hold soil in place on a slope, but it's not perennial. Next year you get weeds. It's useful as a cover crop in the fall but it's not lawn grass.

Sure - but not so large shrub (approx. 3'x3'x3', 4' max.) to properly seal the tarp to the ground which will keep the plant relatively warm. Use a larger tarp for larger plant. Use dark side out, silver side in to gain solar warmth.

Yes, that is the only way to use it unless you can afford to over wrap a plant. Be careful on your measurements. It needs to go all the way to the ground so that cold air does not migrate up into gaps.

I have never tried, but it isn't designed to do that kind of work. I would recommend trying the BAC Industries BG-16 Brush Grubber Shrub/Clump Grubber.

Ben, I suppose you could, but really SuperThrive is designed to go to the roots, so a watering can with 1/4 tsp per gallon is the normal prescription. I have found that 1/2-1 gallon per medium sized plant (or even small tree) does dandy 2 or 3 times a season. I have had it take a tree to triple the size in one season! And, green up some rather puny looking bushes. I made the mistake of using it on some of my in-ground herbs and they have grown out of control! :D

Hi. I'm in Ma. It will but while small I would keep it in a pot and bring it inside for the winter. Once larger you can leave it outside but you'd have to wrap it to protect it. They don't grow very fast.

Perennials would grow fine if they are not too large. The bag may not be deep enough. I plan to use it again this planting season and don't see any reason why I couldn't. I emptied the dirt from it and stored it and have not looked at it yet.

Pick at any size but only from the outside of the plant if you want it to keep growing

It might be a hard plant to keep inside because it grows like a vine it tendrils around a trellis so if you just keeping it in a pot inside while it is starting I would use a pot that is about as big as a bucket but the sooner you put it in the ground the bigger it will get. It grows really fast after transplanting

Recognizing that this is a fairly inexpensive choice I would still answer yes to your question although I think to prolong its life you might consider taking it down and storing it for the summer months. I built a treated lumber deck for mine and use the greenhouse store my outdoor potted plants during the winter months. I bought an inexpensive ceramic heater and put it in the greenhouse surrounded on the bottom and three sides by common bricks to shield the heater from combustible materials. This is my 2nd year and so far very pleased. Depending on where you set it up you will have to anchor it so it doesn't blow away in storms.

I'm in New Mexico and have an atrium indoors. In AZ we had 2 standard pomegranate trees that did very well on simple drip irrigation-the birds ate most of the fruit though. I planted this dwarf in a pot, this way I can move it around indoors or outdoors. Pomegranates take well to pruning once established-you can keep it within a size that is comfortable for you.

Suitable for both. Made up of HDPE, so resistant to sunlight. Drip points won't clog easily with the pressure of water. For annuals I would like it above ground, for perennials, better to be underground and left forever.
